Google
 

Can anybody help? Google (Google) which has always worked suddendly seems to be doing its own thing!! If I ask it to find something it works in exactly the way it should but - if I double click from the "found" page it take me all over the place and usually to something Spanish or Ebay!! If I type in the URL from the foundpage its fine. I have ran several scans (McAfee and Ccleaner) but they find no problems with anything - any views appreciated.

Try AltaVista I read that Google keep a record of all searches :ooh:

I'd similar difficulty last year. The following are the notes I kept re solving my problem:

Spywareinfo is a very helpful site.
Google Search Hijacker - SWI Forums

My problem was:

In MS Internet Explorer, Google search result websites navigate to a different website from that selected.
Happens twice, then navigates to correct website. Homepage not affected.

Initially had Avant browser getting uncommanded start and filling up with pages showing URL referring to 'bestmanage': with little Ferrari logo on tab. Got rid of the Avant problem by running Superantispyware in safe mode.

Attempted to resolve IE problem as follows:
Ran AVG, Adaware, Spybot, Superantispyware & AVG Antispyware,
Also compared msconfig with Pacman's list (had RunDLL32 - now unchecked) and looked at run in regedit.
Ran Hijack this, checked against BHO list and fixed an unknown BHO. Tried the analyser at: HijackThis Logfileauswertung and fixed some further suggestions.
There are transient references in MS IE to maxifiles and fresh-weather.

IE redirection still occurring.

Downloaded FixWareout from one of these sites:
http://downloads.subratam.org/Fixwareout.exe
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/file...Fixwareout.exe

After FixWare my problem seemed to be resolved.
I then:
dbl clicked dnsbak.reg
Ran Kapersky which found about 14 viruses, over 300 infected items and about 60 suspicious items. I presume these were already quarantined.
Ran CCleaner


Really thought I was in for a reformat but it was still a bit of a kerfuffle getting rid of the adware.

I have this problem, however fixwareout doesn't seem to fix it.
Its a bit of a b*gger isnt it?
Anyother suggestions would be welcome.

Use Scroogle....Google searches without the records.
